  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>

          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>

Firstly, you must add an empty, unordered list with three list elements inside the section tags. An unordered list can be made like this:

<ul>
    <li></li>
    <li></li>
    <li></li>
</ul>

Also, inside each list element there will be an image. You insert an image with the img tag like this:

<li>
    <img src="source_to_the_image" />
</li>

As you can see, the image is a self-closing tag. You can see that with the / at the end of the opening tag.

As the exercise is telling you to leave the attributes blank, you don't need to write the path to the image. You just need to do this:

<img src="" />
